Stephanie Koszarek
Hello, I’m Stephanie. I work with people who feel disconnected from themselves or others, overwhelmed by emotion, or stuck in patterns they cannot quite make sense of. Therapy with me can be a place to slow down, look beneath the surface, and build more compassion, clarity, and self-trust at your own pace.
First session
Our first session is a chance for us to get to know each other. I’ll ask what brought you to therapy, what you’ve been experiencing, and what you hope might change. You’ll also have space to ask questions and tell me what feels important. You don’t need to have everything figured out or know where to start. We’ll begin where you are.
Strengths
I bring a calm, gentle presence to sessions and make space for people to share at their own pace. I’m comfortable sitting with difficult feelings, and I also enjoy moments of playfulness. I value being able to laugh together when it feels natural.
Ideal clients
I work well with people who are curious about themselves, even if they’re unsure where to begin. They may feel overwhelmed by their emotions, disconnected from others, or caught in patterns they don’t fully understand. They’re looking for a space to explore what’s beneath the surface and want to develop a deeper understanding of themselves, their relationships, and their needs.
Treatment methods
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
My approach is informed by Internal Family Systems and shaped by my background in art therapy and trauma-focused work. IFS guides the way I listen and understand what may be happening beneath the surface, while art therapy may be used when it supports the process.
